Retronauts Episode 238: Nathan McCree on Composing Tomb Raider Tunes
Added 2019-08-02 13:00:04 +0000 UTCThis week brings us another developer interview, this time with a composer. I haven't done one of these in a while, but it was a pleasure to speak to Nathan McCree about his work on one of the most memorable and inventively crafted game scores of all time: Core Designs' original Tomb Raider. Nathan is currently working through the final phases of a Kickstarter campaign to produce an orchestral remake of his Tomb Raider compositions, which turned out quite lovely. Look it up if you enjoy the music contained in this episode!

Also got a lot of weird echo, wasn't just you.

2019-08-02 23:54:43 +0000 UTCNathan McCree also composed the soundtrack for Soul Star on Sega CD - one of my favorite video game soundtracks of all time. The title screen music alone...and the level where the alarm going off becomes integrated into the music. Great stuff!
